European Parliamentary Elections in France and Germany

In the European Parliamentary elections, hard-right parties in France and Germany had significant victories, particularly the hard-right National Rally party in France surpassing Macron's party by a large margin. Despite these shifts to the right in these countries, other major European countries did not see a similar pattern, with a minimal increase in support for hard-right parties. Macron's unexpected defeat in the elections led to the dissolution of the French National Assembly, setting the stage for a reconfiguration of power dynamics.
